Very understanding and knowledgeable! Highly Recommend

Doug is extremely professional, respectful, and effective. Very honest and works hard. Mr. McGee did an amazing job getting my ticket reduced to a nonmoving violation, defective equipment! He was thorough, courteous, and prompt in responding to all my questions. Highly recommend Mr. McGee if you need... legal assistance.

Absolutely recommend

It was a great pleasure having Doug work my case and I absolutely would recommend him to anyone with a VA ticket. I got a wreck less driving ticket for 96/70 in Shenandoah. Found Doug online and when we spoke he was very realistic and assuring on the proper procedure and expectations I could tell rig...ht away compared to the somewhat cheaper online services that don’t do much that going with him was absolutely worth the few extra bucks. I really appreciated his care for detail and focus as he treats each case as if it’s his only case and really gets full attention. I was provided a list of recommended work to prepare for my case and although I wasn’t able to get everything completed Doug still was able to work his best with what I was able to provide and still had gotten a reduced charge that I am more than happy with. With Doug’s strong community ties I definitely don’t think it would be worth the risk to go with anybody else if found in a similar situation to mine as VA’s driving tickets are not taken lightly and carry some very scary and real consequences if not taken seriously.

91/70 Reckless Driving Reduced to Non-Moving Violation

I was charged with Reckless Driving Speeding 91/70 in Shenandoah County, and among all the lawyers I spoke to try and get this charge reduced, Doug was by far the best and gave me a reasonable price. He explained to me what to realistically expect from this process and sent a detailed list of recomme...nded actions to take prior to the court date, which he pushed out a couple of months in order to give enough time. While I was getting together the materials needed for court, Doug would promptly answer any questions I had really well, and I felt a lot better about the situation having him on my side. On the court date, Doug put in a great amount of effort to get me an incredible result which I was not expecting at all. Doug is an excellent and talented lawyer who is absolutely the right person to hire for your case. I am truly grateful to Doug for helping me get through this process seamlessly.

"I endorse Mr. McGee. He handled a civil traffic case for me with excellent results, getting case dismissed. He was always available and kept in communication during pendency of case. I contacted other lawyers before deciding on Mr. McGee and can tell you if you have a case in his area call him first, you will be satisfied."

Avvo Rating

Our Rating is calculated using information the lawyer has included on their profile in addition to the information we collect from state bar associations and other organizations that license legal professionals. Attorneys who claim their profiles and provide Avvo with more information tend to have a higher rating than those who do not.

What determines Avvo Rating?
  • Experience & background Years licensed, work experience, education
  • Legal community recognition Peer endorsements, associations, awards
  • Legal thought leadership Publications, speaking engagements
  • Discipline Disciplinary information may not be comprehensive, or updated. We recommend that you always check a lawyer's disciplinary status with their respective state bar association before hiring them.
